Fiction Reflection
This year in Language Arts, we studied three types of writing. We studied narrative writing, fiction writing and essay writing. Writing is a large part of Language Arts that my classmates and I will carry with us through middle school, high school and even college. Mrs. Bubalis has taught me what I will need to know to move on to higher grades.

My favorite type of writing that we studied this year is fiction writing. Fiction writing is when you write a story that is made up with created characters that are nonexistent. I really enjoyed fiction writing and hope to try it again soon.

I learned many techniques for fiction writing. Some things that I learned is to include creating a character with internal-external charts, create detailed settings and creating small moments in a large story.

Creating a character with internal-external traits is fun and very helpful. It can be fun to create a character because you can make your character however you want. Creating a character like this can be helpful because you can do it fast and have fun writing the story.
I love that I can put more detail into the setting of my story now that Mrs. Bubalis has taught me how. Adding detail to your stories can help your reader visualize a movie in their head. If you do not add detail to the settings in your stories, your reader will not be able to visualize the story, which will make the story somewhat boring for them to read.

Turning your story into small moments can be very fun to do and also very good for your story. Making your story into small moments can create a better story for your reader. Creating these small moments can create a better visualization for your reader as they read your story.

To sum it all up, I feel that I have become a better writer since the beginning of the year. Some writing skills that I do well are detailing my stories, and creating better scenes. A writing skill I can definitely improve is using different words in place of the world ‘said’. I would like to thank Mrs. Bubalis for teaching me all of these wonderful things.
